Reusable deodorant stick device

ABSTRACT

Embodiments of the disclosed invention relate to a deodorant stick device to store, transport, or apply a deodorant composition. The deodorant stick device may be refilled with a deodorant composition when empty. The deodorant stick device may include a plurality of components, such as a body, a base, a handle, a cover, and a cartridge adapter. The plurality of components may engage/disengage with each other through mechanical or magnetic means. The deodorant stick device may be configured to linearly displace a deodorant composition along the length of a cartridge adapter by rotating a rigid member of the handle.

FIELD OF INVENTION

The claimed invention relates generally to deodorant, and more specifically to a reusable deodorant stick device.

BACKGROUND

A “deodorant” or “deodorant composition” or “deodorant substance,” is a substance applied to the human body to prevent or mask body odor due to bacterial breakdown of perspiration. Typically, deodorants are used in the armpit region, but can be applied to any part of the human body prone to perspiration. A subclass of deodorants—antiperspirants—prevents sweating itself, typically by blocking sweat glands. Antiperspirants are used on a wide range of body parts, at any place where sweat would be inconvenient or unsafe, since unwanted sweating can interfere with comfort, vision, and grip. Generally, deodorant is packaged into “deodorant sticks” using rigid material to enclose the deodorant and includes a rotatable mechanism to displace a platform—positioned at the base of the deodorant—along a threaded shaft to expose the deodorant through an aperture at one end of the deodorant stick. After the deodorant has been consumed (e.g., the deodorant stick is empty) the empty deodorant stick is discarded. One long felt need of the deodorant industry is to reduce the quantity of resources used for deodorant stick packaging.
